What’s This TV Show About?

Airing on the CBS television network, MacGyver stars Lucas Till, George Eads, Tristin Mays, Justin Hires, and Meredith Eaton. The reimagined drama centers on Angus “Mac” MacGyver (Till), a 20-something adventurer. Mac creates a secret organization within the US government. There, he uses his vast scientific knowledge and an extraordinary talent for unconventional problem solving to save the world.

Season Two Ratings

The second season of MacGyver averaged a 0.83 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 6.86 million viewers. Compared to season one, that’s down by 23% and down by 11%, respectively. Find out how MacGyver stacks up against the other CBS TV shows.

Telly’s Take

Perhaps only Angus MacGyver could craft a second season pickup out of the tepid demo ratings from the freshman installment of the MacGyver reboot. Fortunately, he had a decent total audience to work with. Although season two has been drawing lower numbers than last year, I suspect CBS will still renew MacGyver for season three.

My son and I really happy that it coming back. This is one of the few shows our 16 year old son will watch with us.

I am over the moon that MacGyver has been renewed! I have several tv shows that I feel are must watch, even if they are reruns. This is one of my top shows. I watched it as a child and loved it. When I heard they planed to reboot it I hoped they would do it justice. I had hoped that some how they might even sneak in Richard Dean Anderson. Maybe as an early mentor or as his Dad, Uncle just a nice nod to the shows history. Many of my favorite shows this year didn’t make it, yet… Read more »

This show has truly inspired me to learn more. I recommend it to anyone who thinks learning is stupid – What can I say? It changed my mind … And that’s saying something!

I love the new MacGyver and am so happy that there is a Season 3 of MacGyver. The series is absolutely brilliant, especially Lucas Till is absolutely great. Of course I hope for Season 4 and so on. Great of CBS that it continues. Greetings Ute 🙂

I can’t say enough how thrilled I am that MacGyver is being renewed for a third season that was a wise choice on cbs’s part. I really like the characters I get into the characters I don’t want the characters to be changed. This is a good story these are good characters this can go on for years and years I can see a season 12 of MacGyver and would be thrilled if it went on forever.
